RETIONALE: A diploma in Agricultural Engg. Student, who is to be trained to become aprofessional is required to be fully conversant with his duties, responsibilities and authority in anyorganization. He/she is expected to know about meaning of Farm management, characteristics offarming as a business, basics of Farm production decisions, application of Farm managementprinciples, basic tools of Farm business analysis, important farm inputs such as land, labour,machinery, building etc, about problems concerning different farm resources and managementprinciples to solve these individual resource – use problems.

The knowledge about entrepreneurship is essential for a Diploma in Agricultural Engg.Student because entrepreneurship is a purposeful activity of an individual or a group of associatedindividuals for creating something new, organizing & co-ordinating and undertaking risk andhandling economic uncertainty for setting up as enterprises.

OBJECTIVES: The course is designed with following objectives:-- To develop decision making ability.- To know about economic principles applied to farm management.- To be aware with demand and supply.- To develop knowledge about Farm Planning and Budgeting.- To develop knowledge about Agricultural marketing.- To develop knowledge about Entrepreneurship.- To bring attitudinal change for making him/her an honest professional.

RATIONALE: Energy in an important input in all sectors of any country’s economy. Thestandard of living of a given country can be directly related to per capita energy consumption. Thepopulation of the world has increased rapidly and standard of living of human being has increasedhence Energy crisis occurs. If present trend continues, the world in the year 2000 A.D will be morecrowded than that of today. The conventional source of energy are depleting and may be exhaustedby the end of the century or beginning of the next century. Nuclear energy requires skilledtechnicians and poses the safety as regards to radioactive waste disposal. Solar energy and othernon-conventional energy sources are the sources, those are to be utilize in future.

Objectives: The objective of the course content is to provide knowledge of different types ofconventional & non – conventional sources of energy
